A system science perspective of the drivers of equatorial plasma bubbles
The complex drivers of equatorial plasma bubbles and resulting scintillation requires a system science approach spanning the M-ITM disciplines. The current roadmap missions strongly support this approach, but gaps are identified in planned observations, with potential mission and solutions proposed.
